Wyless wins Global Telecom Business’s Machine-to-Machine Services Innovation award

Partner O2 Communications Ireland jointly awarded for work with ABB Robotics

Wyless, the International wireless data communications group and partner O2 Communications Ireland, have been awarded for innovative M2M services in the 2008 GTB Innovation Awards. Wyless was honoured for its work with robotics manufacturing company ABB, who has developed a wireless monitoring system for industrial robots to deliver new customer services.

The awards presentation took place in London on the evening of Tuesday September 9th, 2008. Nominations for the awards came from readers of Global Telecoms Business magazine, which is published for senior executives in the industry worldwide.

Paul Smith, CEO of Wyless, commented, " The Global Telecoms Business Innovation Award represents recognition for our work in the M2M space, our innovative work with partners such as O2, and our dedication to our customer ABB. We continue to strive to provide all our customers with the high-quality service associated with this award."

The ABB remote service logs the ABB robot’s key diagnostic data and sends it remotely to an ABB service centre via GPRS technology.The robot can automatically alert the central database, alert the on-call service engineer, who can then immediately access a detailed data error log and quickly identify the exact fault, resulting in dramatically lowering the TCO for ABB customers.
